Corrosion Is Bad Vehicle manufacturers have developed methods to protect the steel on today’s vehicles through a process called galvanizion. This process coats one or both sides of the metal with zinc. When zinc is exposed to moisture and air, it forms zinc oxide, which acts as a barrier againstRead More →

Austenitic stainless steels such as 304 or 316 have high amounts of nickel and chromium. The chromium combines with the oxygen before the iron is able to which forms a chromium oxide layer. This layer is very corrosion resistant which prevents rust formation and protects the underlying metal. Is magneticRead More →

Wet corrosion of metals occurs through electron transfer, involving two processes, oxidation and reduction. … The surrounding environment then gains the electrons in reduction. The metal, where electrons are lost, is called the anode. The other metal, liquid or gas which gains the electrons is called the cathode. What isRead More →
